Klepto

A novel that captures what happens when you don't exactly fit in... Bullied since elementary school for being different, Talitha Bennett's high school career is starting out exactly the same way. Supported by her older sister, Adina, and her longtime friends, Neha and Ethan, Talitha tries to keep up hope that the ABC Girls might leave her alone, all the while hiding a terrible secret she's kept since she was six... Not long after school starts, Talitha meets the center of the JV soccer team, Tristan Parrish. He's gorgeous, popular and to Talitha's great surprise he seems to like her. Or is this all just another practical joke that Addison and her group of tormentors have put together? Struggling with the anxiety of trying to fit in, Talitha lashes out in ways that might have long term repercussions and forever change her world.
